The army in the Beifu Army is on the high platform.
This temporary high wooden platform was now carried by more than ten carts and pushed forward. Liu Yu looked calmly and looked ahead. Every move ten miles away could be seen at a glance, and the mobilization of the two armies. , the hustle and bustle of flags and drums became even more visible. Yu Yue, a member of a noble family who was visiting the battlefield for the first time, could not help but feel frightened. His face also changed again and again. He could only drink water to relieve the fear in his heart.
Wang Shen'ai smiled slightly: "Yu Canjun, are you thirsty today?"
Yu Yue forced out a smile: "I'm just thirsty today. Maybe, maybe I'm going to be sick."
Liu Muzhi said coldly: "I advise Mr. Yu not to drink too much water. Today is a big battle, and there will be no place for you to relieve yourself."
Yu Yue instinctively wanted to say that there was no problem, he could pee here as he pleased, but when he thought that this woman Wang Shenai was here, he immediately swallowed his words, gritted his teeth, put the water bag in his hand aside, and said: "In that case, I won't drink water today. Commander, are the enemy troops going to attack our army? Are they wearing armor and cavalry?"
Liu Yu nodded: "Obviously, they want to attack the front of our army. However, judging from the composition of the troops, they should be light cavalry, mainly engaged in mounted shooting, and they should not charge directly."
Hu Fan said sternly: "Yes, the armor and cavalry are both men and horses, and most of the cavalry don't even wear armor. In order to maintain the speed of the cavalry, they are obviously light cavalry. However, using light cavalry to attack our solid army Defending the front should have no effect, why did the Yan army do this?"
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Perhaps the General of the Yan Army thought that our army was defeated at the first charge and trembled at the sight of the cavalry. Or maybe because of years of robbing the Han people, they thought that we were really cattle and sheep and were at their mercy. These Yan troops seemed very proud, and even regarded this battle as hunting, and their general's flag was in the name of Gongsun, probably either Gongsun Wulou or his brother Gongsun Gui."
Wang Miaoyin's beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly: "Gongsun Wulou was severely beaten by our army just now, so he shouldn't be so arrogant. And Gongsun Gui is the enemy general who led his army to invade our Jiangbei last time. The knight just said these Yan The army is arrogant and arrogant. They are probably Gongsun Gui's subordinates. They have just taken advantage of us and think that our Jin army is weak and can be bullied. Chariots and cavalry, if possible, please be sure to severely damage or even annihilate this cavalry. Not only It can demoralize the enemy and avenge those soldiers who were killed and the people who were plundered!"
Liu Yu nodded vigorously: "That's exactly what I mean. I believe Ah Shou from the former army also thinks so. Please don't be impatient and just wait and see."
Yu Yue's eyes widened and he looked forward: "Why did the commander say that Liu Guanjun of the former army also meant this? I don't think he did anything."
Liu Yu smiled slightly, and Hu Fan on the side said: "Because judging from Liu Guanjun's flag language, he is already making arrangements to lure the enemy!"
On the Yan army side, Gongsun Gui was holding a broadsword and commanding his cavalry formation. Two lieutenants came over on horseback. The one on the right, who was in his early thirties and had a black face and beard, named He Shenggai, saluted him on horseback: " General, the formation has been completed and we are waiting for your order."
Gongsun Gui nodded with satisfaction: "Warriors, these southern barbarians are well equipped. If we destroy them, these armors and ordnance will be ours, then we ourselves can become armored cavalry. Don't you all want to be armored cavalry?" ? Then just rely on yourself!"
A relatively calm-looking lieutenant general in his forties on the left, named Yi Fusheng, frowned: "General, the Imperial Counselor just said that you should not underestimate the enemy. After all, the Jin army has experienced hundreds of battles, and now it seems to be well-equipped. Don’t be careless.”
Gongsun Gui thought for a while and said: "General Yifu is right. The Imperial Master asked us to test it out, so let's give it a try first. Brother Hesheng, you lead a thousand men and horses to attack first. You only shoot at a gallop, but don't break out. Everything will be done according to my orders."
He Shenggai said dissatisfiedly: "If you can't break out of the formation, then whose equipment will defeat the enemy?"
Gongsun Gui laughed: "There is nothing to worry about. I promise, if the Jin army is really defeated, no one will snatch it from you. All the Jin army equipment with the bows and arrows of your subordinates is yours!"
He Shenggai turned to smile and said: "General Yifu, did you hear that, but we have been brothers for so many years, don't worry, I will definitely leave a share for you."
Yi Fusheng smiled slightly: "Then I am here to wish Brother He Sheng a great victory."
When He Shenggai left, Yi Fusheng looked at his leaving figure and said softly: "General, He Shenggai is a fierce general in our army. He can easily get hot-headed when fighting. You still need to observe the situation here. If something goes wrong, you must We force him to come back, and the order given to us by the National Master is also not to pursue and charge into the formation."
Gongsun Gui waved his hand carelessly: "Of course I know this, huh, I think the Imperial Master failed to ambush Liu Yu that day, and the Jin general Meng Longfu was frightened, which affected his judgment. How could anyone dare to attack?" Thousands of enemy troops? My cowardly and slippery brothers must be exaggerating. This time, I will let them see with their own eyes the power of our Dayan cavalry. Yifu, you turned out to be following the rebel Murong Fa. Although We will switch sides in time and be loyal to His Majesty, but you also know that the other generals’ views on us can only be expressed through our performance on the battlefield, otherwise, we will disperse our troops and be relieved of our military duties in the future.”
Yi Fusheng's expression changed, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Our loyalty to His Majesty can be proven by the sun, I swear..."
Gongsun Gui sighed: "What's the point of swearing to me? Besides, how important are we sincerely? Da Yan only has one state now, but it has to support hundreds of thousands of troops. If it doesn't expand to the outside world, it will be abolished and eliminated." It's inevitable. Last time, I used the relationship between brothers to get you the opportunity to attack Jiangbei of Jin State. But even if you performed well and made meritorious service, you only divided the spoils and didn't even reward the people you captured. Give it to us, do you know why?"
Yifusheng said bitterly: "I heard that these Jin people are proficient in music. Your Majesty wants them to learn music and reorganize the royal band."
Gongsun Gui sneered and said: "Those are just excuses. Let me tell you the truth. Apart from a few hundred people who were selected as prisoners of Jin to learn music and rebuild the band, thousands of others were given to the Helan tribe. Then the Helan tribe Lan Lu is also coming here this time. Everyone knows that the Jin Kingdom is easier to fight than the Northern Wei Dynasty. If we don't perform well, I'm afraid we will switch with him in the future to defend the Northern Wei Dynasty."
Yi Fusheng's expression changed: "Damn it, this is still happening, then we must win this battle no matter what!"
Gongsun Gui's eyes flashed coldly: "When the time comes, we will act according to the opportunity and break the formation and attack when we have the opportunity. Your Majesty is watching from the top of the city. As long as we strive for our own strength, no one can take away what is ours!"
